    My aunt in England would call pubescent individuals of that particular orientation,
    " spotted Prancers".

    The thought of self-driving cars is scary. And, since I like driving, I don’t get it.

    You might as well have self driving boxes, because why need an actual car?

    the only way they will let us have skycars is if they are on an autopilot grid system

    There's times when I feel like driving, but there's also times when I could use the commute time to do something more productive if the car drives itself. It also makes parking in urban areas way easier if the car can drop you of wherever you want to go then drive away to a waiting area instead of paying $25 to valet park for an hour.

    There's also the alcohol thing.

    This is the solution to ground-based traffic as well. Traffic jams mostly happen because people driving the cars are selfish and stupid (not necessarily in that order). If all the cars were autonomous and coordinated, existing infrastructure could hold double the amount of vehicles without congestion.

    traffic jams happen because the state tries to impose too much order
    the answer is not double the amount of vehicles without congestion
    the less order the more people behave
    not because its required by law but because its required by nature
    but you cant do that here
    folks are too used to easy streets

    having thought of why quite a bit it is my conclusion that 15% or more of people on the road have no business being there and fuck it all up for everyone else
    they brake going up hills, down hills, mild curves, just no idea how to control a motor vehicle
    i think it was gallagher who said every person should possess a high powered dart gun and after a car collect 3 darts they get pulled over and written up for being an asshole
    its just not hard to get a drivers license and that small percentage of morons (and prius drivers) make it hell out there
    i'm from the era that was promised jetpacks but that's just never happening because its impossible
    one day i'm sitting on rube's mountain eating trees and sipping tequila and take off w my jetpack slightly low on fuel
    you can do that in a car and likely you have to wait on AAA
    do it in a jetpack and suddenly you're in pieces inside someones attic
    not to mention the guy who forgets to turn his lights on at dark
